Blue grass was the outgrowth of Irish music. As a matter of fact a lot the tunes, a lot of the melodies and the jigs... have different names but are actually the same tunes.

Keith Getty

Our tunes aren't just sing-along tunes: they're very complex. After a few days of that, you gotta take a break.

Dickey Betts

When I started I only swam freestyle, and did just freestyle in my first Paralympics.

Jessica Long

I don't freestyle, but when I'm writing and thinking, sometimes things pop up - that's basically a freestyle.

Andre Benjamin

When I drop a freestyle, I'm like, 'This freestyle gotta go hard' or when I do something it's, 'How can we top this?'

Megan Thee Stallion

I do very few standards. Hardly any. Other people's tunes that I do are usually obscure tunes, for the most part, although I do a couple of Duke Ellington tunes that are well known.

Mose Allison

If you just freestyle, everybody is gonna go, 'Freestyle.'

Cam'ron

I'm not really a country singer, although I did make a couple albums and love its simple, straight-from-the-heart approach, but I have always sung a lot of jazz, show tunes, pop tunes, gospel and blues.

Dinah Shore

When I was coming up, a freestyle wasn't a freestyle unless everything was completely improvised, in-the-moment and right there, and you had to incorporate various elements of what was going on in the room on the day.

We are profoundly grateful for the blessings bestowed upon us: the preservation of our freedom, so dearly bought and so highly prized; our opportunities for human welfare and happiness, so limitless in their scope; our material prosperity, so far surpassing that of earlier years; and our private spiritual blessings, so deeply cherished by all. For these we offer fervent thanks to God.

Harry S. Truman

There's not a lot of thinking in my music. I freestyle a lot of things and organize it later, and then it becomes a song.

Masego

I will do a lot of research and create a lot of material for use in one painting. And then I go on discovering and working with a whole other range of material in another painting. I'm interested in a fairly comprehensive and orchestrated synthesis that might bring about a new situation consisting of this hidden material. I'm interested in hidden source material.

Philip Taaffe

As a rapper, I don't freestyle. I used to freestyle when I used to get drunk, and it didn't matter.

Andre Benjamin

When I start working on a batch of tunes - like roughly 10 solid tunes - I always know there'll be another 10 to follow, because for every song I invest a lot of time in, there's another song waiting behind it.

Ryan Adams

The material I did was lasting material. A lot of people thought I wasn't doing anything, but I was in the studio. The biggest factor is the material you choose. You hunt, you cut.
